In the interest of fun and sharing, I'm participating in a 5 Fact Friday hook-up at Reflections of You. Today is double inspriration day because at Shutter Sisters the one word prompt was "cameras."
Hence the photo! The Spartus was a clean out the foot locker moment with my in-laws years ago. The Canon AE-1 was my first SLR that was purchased in Oklahoma where my husband was stationed. And the other camera---don't have a clue where I got that one. I have others--a couple I should try to sell. They aren't valuable, I just appreciate what they represent.
FUN FACTS
1. Surprise! I like old cameras! I'm not a collector, I just love thinking of the memories they hold.
2. There always is a stack of books next to the bed and on my Kindle. Just started: The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society; also A Return to Love by Marianne Williamson. There's more, but I don't want to bore you.
3. Going to lunch with my bestfriend on Friday is a favorite thing. We try new restaurants, we talk, we laugh.
4. I'm seriously considering an "organize my life" month.
5. It would not bother me if I never tasted beer again. But don't take my wine glass until I'm finished! Where's the chocolate?
#4.... oh my...i could definitely use one of those.

I share your love of old cameras!! I treasure my Dad's old Agfa that he bought when he was stationed in Germany and that captured all my childhood pictures!! I have an old Brownie that I'm waiting to arrive from eBay!

I love finding old cameras at flea markets, I'm up to 10 and think I better stop. And The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Society is one of my favorite books. And I could use an organize my life month too.....feeling somewhat scattered these days.....
ReplyDeleteI agree don't take away the wine glass :)
ReplyDeleteyey....choc and wine a girl after my own heart love the cameras I have 2 old ones I must get them out...
ReplyDeleteI LOVE your post! I feel exactly the same way about beer! Ick. But give me a glass of Merlot and some chocolate, and I'm all over it! I love the old cameras as well. I'd love to start collecting, but having new equipment is tough enough to pay for, lol!
ReplyDeleteGreat post and I love those cameras! I would like an old vintage typewriter :)
